A look back at 2021 (Part 2): The Taliban takeover and the Gaza-Israel War

This week, as we wrap up 2021, we’re looking at two conflicts that have defined not only the past year, but the past few decades.

We’re talking about the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, the collapse of the government and the country’s future under the resurgent Taliban. Also, we talk about May’s war in Gaza, the legacy of 11 days of rockets and air strikes, and whether there is any hope for resolving the Arab-Israeli conflict.
